Sam says "it's probably a unity thing, I think passive key grabs are
allowed to activate when there's a global grab, so maybe unityshell
should check if the screen is grabbed first before opening the dash"

Title:
  When super key was pressed while screen is locked, dash appears after
  login

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As I don't think this is a feature, I'm filing a bug report.

  When pressing the super key (Windows key, Mod4) when the screen is
  locked (ie via Ctrl + Alt + L), then the Dash home is shown with the
  cursor in the search field. This is reproducible. I'd expect to find
  my session, exactly as I left it ignoring all the commands while the
  screen is locked.

  Another strange thing happened, which I unfortunately wasn't able to
  reproduce: I was pressing a lot of buttons (cleaning my keyboard)
  while the screen was locked and suddenly the the desktop showed up.
  Everything was blurred also the window for entering the password to
  unlock the screen. But hitting Esc I got the usual lock screen.
